Calypso was an unusual child, considered quite eccentric from the time he
hit junior high school. Well educated thanks to his parents enrolling him in
an online educational program in addition to school studies, Calypso got a
scholarship to university were he completed a pre-med undergraduate degree
before going onto medical school.

An idealist, Calypso was half way through when he suddenly dropped out,
packed his bags, and caught a low berth to a nearby backwater world,
currently experiencing social turmoil and civil war. He had seen an urgent
plea from one of the factions for fighters who believed in freedom over
tyranny. Their struggle, which was captured in full high tech glory thanks
to a supporter of theirs who lived on Calypso’s planet, struck a chord with
him and he decided there and then he could make a difference.

He arrived at the starport, which was under full Imperial Control and
neutral in the ongoing conflict and was nearly killed by enemy agents who
had discovered that off world recruits were inbound. He was spirited to a
rebel camp in the rocky wastes, given a brief introduction the military
life, then sent into battle with a hundred or so off world recruits.

Seven years later as a Lieutenant, he staggered into the starport having
travelled on foot for six weeks after his faction was brutally crushed after
their opposition received off world corporate assistance. He had served in
an artillery unit until his medical skills were discovered, with Calypso
relegated to the rear to treat the injured and train locals in first aid.
This saved his life as the enemy killed almost all the front line fighters
in just two days of combat, following the introduction of G carriers into
the conflict.

After six months recuperation he joined the Scouts and was commissioned
into the Operations branch, where he has been for the past 4 years, making
the rank of Administrator. He has enjoyed his time in the scouts but is
looking to move on, perhaps taking up a position of a starship medic and see
where life takes him from there.

He has a Tech 6 Motorbike in reasonable condition that he rides whenever
he can, and has enough fuel to last about a thousand kilometers. He is
talkative, especially when he drinks, and tends to interrupt people with his
own anecdotes, especially long and detail rich war stories where he is
brutally honest when relating events. Calypso is addicted to tobacco, an
affectation picked up during his time as a freedom fighter, and smokes using
an elaborate rose wood pipe.
